3．（6分）Oil paper umbrellas，with a history of over 1，000 years in China，were used by many people in the past.However，steel﹣ribbed （钢骨的） umbrellas appeared in the last century.And oil paper umbrellas became less used in daily life.Instead，they turned into decorative artifacts （工艺品）.
Yuhang in Hangzhou is famous for making oil paper umbrellas.The hand﹣made umbrellas here take more than 70 steps to make，including making bamboo ribs，pasting paper （糊纸） and painting pictures.It usually takes at least seven days to make an umbrella.
In 2015，Liu Weixue，left a well﹣paid job as a designer to learn the traditional art from his grandfather.After mastering the skills，he opened a shop of oil paper umbrellas.Now，he is a master of making oil paper umbrellas. "I want to bring the art to life." Liu said.To win the hearts of young people，Liu tried to make the umbrellas better.He started to use thicker paper because the traditional paper was easy to break.In a test，his umbrellas were opened and closed 1，000 times，but they didn't break.Also，he used lighter bamboo so that the umbrellas would weigh less.In 2017，Liu opened an online shop to sell umbrellas.It has more than 80，000 fans.
Liu hopes to pass on traditional art，so he often goes to local schools to teach students.Zhu Tingting took Liu's class last summer and made an umbrella in class successfully.She said，"Learning how to make oil paper umbrellas means a lot."
（1）The writer wrote Paragraph 2 to
A.tell us Yuhang is the homeland for oil paper umbrellas.
B.introduce how difficult it is to make oil paper umbrellas.
C.show his deep love for the oil paper umbrellas.
D.tell us what oil paper umbrellas look like.
（2）The following things make Liu's oil paper umbrellas popular EXCEPT .
A.thicker paper
B.lighter bamboo
C.traditional paper
D.his online shop
（3）What is the meaning of the underlined sentence in the last paragraph？
A.It's important for young people to pass on traditional art.
B.We can learn different traditional arts in Liu's class.
C.We should learn how to make oil paper umbrellas.
D.Learning traditional art is difficult but funny.
4．（8分）Some people believe that humans could live on the planet Mars by the year 2100.Our own planet，the Earth，is becoming more and more crowded and polluted because of the rapid increase in population.It is hoped that people could start all over again and build a better world on Mars.Here is what life could be like there.
At present，our spacecrafts are too slow to carry large numbers of passengers to Mars ﹣ it would take months.With the development of technology，by the year 2100，the journey might only take about 20 minutes in spacecrafts that travel at the speed of light!However，the spacecrafts would travel so fast that the journey to Mars might be quite uncomfortable.Many people would feel ill.
Humans cannot survive without water，oxygen or food.So far，nobody knows whether there would be enough water or oxygen on Mars for people there.Moreover，scientists are not sure whether plants could grow on Mars.Food would most probably be in the form of pills and would not be so tasty.
Gravity could be another problem.The gravity on Mars is only about three﹣eighths of that on the Earth.People would have to wear boots that are specially designed to prevent themselves from floating off into space.
Compared with life on the Earth，life on Mars would be better in some ways.People would have more space.They might live in houses with huge comfortable rooms.Also，robots would do most of their work so that they could have more time to relax.
There would probably be no schools on Mars.Every student would have a computer at home connected to an interplanetary network. They would study at online schools with "e﹣teachers".
Life on Mars would be interesting as well as challenging.
（1）What is the structure of the article ？
A.
B.
C.
D.
（2）What challenges might people have to live on Mars？
①People might have food in the form of pills.

④People might get sick traveling in the future spacecraft.
⑤Specially made clothes have to be worn while floating.
⑥Students might be able to have e﹣classes just at home.
A. ①②③
B. ②③⑥
C. ①④⑤
D.④⑤⑥
（3）What does the underlined word interplanetary network mean？
A.A network connects people from different cities.
B.A network connects people from different countries.
C.A network connects people all over the world.
D.A network connects people from different planets.
（4）What is the writer's opinion towards life on Mars？

World's oldest land animal
Jonathan，a turtle on the island of Saint Helena in the South Atlantic，turned 190 years old.This makes him the world's oldest living land animal.
In fact，Jonathan is probably older than 190.In 1882，Sir William Grey﹣Wilson，governor of the island，got him as a gift.At that time，Jonathan was already an adult.
Since it takes more than 50 years for a turtle to become an adult，animal experts say Jonathan must have been born before 1832.So his birthday was set on December 4th，1832.
In 1890，Sir Grey﹣Wilson became the governor of this island.He took Jonathan with him to live at the governor's home，called Plantation House.Since then，over 30 other governors have come and gone from Plantation House.But Jonathan has remained.And now he shares his home with three other turtles.
It is hard to understand how much the world has changed in the past 190 years.Jonathan was born before the Internet，computers，TVs，radios，telephones or light bulbs.He is older than the first picture.He was born before global warming began and before plastic was invented.
But Jonathan's interests do not change.He loves sleeping and eating.He likes to warm himself by sleeping in the sun.When the weather gets cold，he digs himself into grass to keep warm.
Though Jonathan is still very active，he does have some health problems.He is blind and cannot smell，so people need to feed him by hand.But he can hear well.And he eats a lot.He eats a lot of vegetables and fruits，including lettuce，cabbage and carrots，as well as apples and bananas.
Scientists have even studied Jonathan to get health benefits from his diet and cells.His cells do not mutate（ 突 变 ） the same way human cells do.Scientists also hope to find some secrets to fighting cancer in humans.
（1）Why did the writer list some inventions in Paragraph 5？
A .To show Jonathan's long life.
B.To tell the development of the society.
C.To express the concern of global warming.
D.To share Jonathan's interesting life.
（2）Which of the followings is NOT TRUE？
A.Jonathan has lived in Plantation House with over 30 other governors.
B.There are four turtles in Plantation House now.
C.Jonathan likes to sleep in the sun to keep warm.
D.Jonathan digs himself into grass to get cold.
（3）Why do people need to feed Jonathan by hand？
A.Because he is very active.
B.Because he is blind and can't smell.
C.Because he is a turtle of the governor.
D.Because he is too old to eat by himself.
（4）What's the correct order of the following events according to the passage？
①Jonathan lives together with three other turtles.
②Someone sent Jonathan to Grey﹣Wilson as a gift.
③Jonathan was born on an island in the South Atlantic.
④Jonathan moved to Plantation House with Grey﹣Wilson.
⑤More than 30 governors came and gone from Plantation House.
A. ②③④①⑤
B. ②③④⑤①
C. ③②④①⑤
D. ③②④⑤①
四.第二节 阅读填空（共 5 小题；每小题 1 分，满分 5 分）

Most animals communicate by smell.Dogs are famous for this.（1） Dogs have helped the police for a long time，too.They can find missing people by using their fantastic sense of smell.Mice have an excellent sense of smell，too.Scientists have even trained them to find landmines.Scientists have discovered that even ants use smell.（2）

（4） When a cat puts its ears back，it is a bit mad.When it sits with its tail around itself，it is happy.（5） When it wags its tail and opens its mouth，it is happy.So I think my dog is happy right now.

4．（8分）Some people believe that humans could live on the planet Mars by the year 2100.Our own planet，the Earth，is becoming more and more crowded and polluted because of the rapid increase in population.It is hoped that people could start all over again and build a better world on Mars.Here is what life could be like there.
At present，our spacecrafts are too slow to carry large numbers of passengers to Mars ﹣ it would take months.With the development of technology，by the year 2100，the journey might only take about 20 minutes in spacecrafts that travel at the speed of light!However，the spacecrafts would travel so fast that the journey to Mars might be quite uncomfortable.Many people would feel ill.
Humans cannot survive without water，oxygen or food.So far，nobody knows whether there would be enough water or oxygen on Mars for people there.Moreover，scientists are not sure whether plants could grow on Mars.Food would most probably be in the form of pills and would not be so tasty.
Gravity could be another problem.The gravity on Mars is only about three﹣eighths of that on the Earth.People would have to wear boots that are specially designed to prevent themselves from floating off into space.
Compared with life on the Earth，life on Mars would be better in some ways.People would have more space.They might live in houses with huge comfortable rooms.Also，robots would do most of their work so that they could have more time to relax.
There would probably be no schools on Mars.Every student would have a computer at home connected to an interplanetary network. They would study at online schools with "e﹣teachers".
Life on Mars would be interesting as well as challenging.

6．（8分）
World's oldest land animal
Jonathan，a turtle on the island of Saint Helena in the South Atlantic，turned 190 years old.This makes him the world's oldest living land animal.
In fact，Jonathan is probably older than 190.In 1882，Sir William Grey﹣Wilson，governor of the island，got him as a gift.At that time，Jonathan was already an adult.
Since it takes more than 50 years for a turtle to become an adult，animal experts say Jonathan must have been born before 1832.So his birthday was set on December 4th，1832.
In 1890，Sir Grey﹣Wilson became the governor of this island.He took Jonathan with him to live at the governor's home，called Plantation House.Since then，over 30 other governors have come and gone from Plantation House.But Jonathan has remained.And now he shares his home with three other turtles.
It is hard to understand how much the world has changed in the past 190 years.Jonathan was born before the Internet，computers，TVs，radios，telephones or light bulbs.He is older than the first picture.He was born before global warming began and before plastic was invented.
But Jonathan's interests do not change.He loves sleeping and eating.He likes to warm himself by sleeping in the sun.When the weather gets cold，he digs himself into grass to keep warm.
Though Jonathan is still very active，he does have some health problems.He is blind and cannot smell，so people need to feed him by hand.But he can hear well.And he eats a lot.He eats a lot of vegetables and fruits，including lettuce，cabbage and carrots，as well as apples and bananas.
Scientists have even studied Jonathan to get health benefits from his diet and cells.His cells do not mutate（ 突 变 ） the same way human cells do.Scientists also hope to find some secrets to fighting cancer in humans.
（1）Why did the writer list some inventions in Paragraph 5？ A
A .To show Jonathan's long life.
B.To tell the development of the society.
C.To express the concern of global warming.
D.To share Jonathan's interesting life.
（2）Which of the followings is NOT TRUE？ A
A.Jonathan has lived in Plantation House with over 30 other governors.
B.There are four turtles in Plantation House now.
C.Jonathan likes to sleep in the sun to keep warm.
D.Jonathan digs himself into grass to get cold.
（3）Why do people need to feed Jonathan by hand？ B
A.Because he is very active.
B.Because he is blind and can't smell.
C.Because he is a turtle of the governor.
D.Because he is too old to eat by himself.
（4）What's the correct order of the following events according to the passage？ D
①Jonathan lives together with three other turtles.
②Someone sent Jonathan to Grey﹣Wilson as a gift.
③Jonathan was born on an island in the South Atlantic.
④Jonathan moved to Plantation House with Grey﹣Wilson.
⑤More than 30 governors came and gone from Plantation House.
A. ②③④①⑤
B. ②③④⑤①
C. ③②④①⑤
D. ③②④⑤①
【解答】（1）推理判断题。根据第五段Jonathan was born before the Internet，computers，TVs，radios，telephones or light bulbs.He is older than the first picture.He was born before global warming began and before plastic was invented.（乔纳森出生在互联网、电脑、电视、收音机、电话和灯泡出现之前。他比第一张照片老。他出生在全球变暖开始之前，塑料发明之前。）可推断出作者在第5段列出了一些发明，是为了展示乔纳森的长寿。故选A。
（2）推理判断题。根据第四段Since then，over 30 other governors have come and gone from Plantation House.But Jonathan has remained.（从那以后，又有30多位州长从种植园大厦卸任。但是乔纳森继续存在。）可推断出A选项"乔纳森和其他30多位州长一起住在种植园大厦。"表述错误。故选A。
（3）细节理解题。根据第七段He is blind and cannot smell，so people need to feed him by hand.（它是瞎的，也闻不到气味，所以人们需要用手喂他。）可知人们需要用手喂乔纳森，因为它是瞎的，也闻不到气味。故选B。
（4）细节理解题。根据第三段Since it takes more than 50 years for a turtle to become an adult，animal experts say Jonathan must have been born before 1832.So his birthday was set on December 4th，1832.（由于一只海龟需要50多年的时间才能长大，动物专家表示，乔纳森一定是在1832年之前出生的。所以他的生日定在1832年12月4日。）以及第二段In 1882，Sir William Grey﹣Wilson，governor of the island，got him as a gift.（1882年，该岛总督威廉•格雷•威尔逊爵士作为礼物得到了它。）以及第四段He took Jonathan with him to live at the governor's home，called Plantation House.Since then，over 30 other governors have come and gone from Plantation House.But Jonathan has remained.And now he shares his home with three other turtles.（他带着乔纳森一起住在总督的家里，叫做种植园大厦。从那以后，又有30多位州长从种植园大厦卸任。但是乔纳森继续存在。现在他和另外三只乌龟一起住在家里。）可知正确的顺序应为： ③②④⑤①。故选D。

【解答】细节推理题
（1）根据第二段Most animals communicate by smell.Dogs are famous for this.（大多数动物靠嗅觉交流。狗就是以这个出名的。）可推测，接下来作者要谈论跟狗嗅觉有关的信息。结合选项When a dog walk outside，it learns about other dogs by smelling things.（当狗在外面散步时，它通过气味来了解其他狗。）符合语境。故选D。
（2）根据第二段Scientists have discovered that even ants use smell.（科学家们发现甚至蚂蚁也利用嗅觉。）可推测，接下来作者要谈论与蚂蚁嗅觉相关的信息。结合选项They use smell to tell other ants where the food is.（它们用嗅觉告诉其他蚂蚁食物在哪里。）符合语境。故选C。

（4）根据最后一段When a cat puts its ears back，it is a bit mad.When it sits with its tail around itself，it is happy.（当猫把耳朵缩回来的时候，它就有点发疯。当它用尾巴绕着自己坐着的时候，它是快乐的。）可知，这是以猫为例，介绍动物也靠肢体语言交流。结合选项Animals have always used body language to communicate as well.（动物也一直使用肢体语言进行交流。）符合语境。故选E。
（5）根据最后一段When it wags its tail and opens its mouth，it is happy.（当它摇尾巴，张开嘴巴的时候，它是快乐的。）可知，这里是描述的是狗的肢体语言，所以空处应该也是与狗肢体语言有关的信息。结合选项When a dog puts its tail under its body，it is scared.（当狗把尾巴放在身体下面时，它是害怕的。）符合语境。故选B。
【点评】做题时结合原文和题目有针对性找出相关语句进行仔细分析，结合选项选出正确答案。推理判断也是要在抓住关键句子的基础上合理的分析才能得出正确的答案。

3．（6分）Oil paper umbrellas，with a history of over 1，000 years in China，were used by many people in the past.However，steel﹣ribbed （钢骨的） umbrellas appeared in the last century.And oil paper umbrellas became less used in daily life.Instead，they turned into decorative artifacts （工艺品）.
Yuhang in Hangzhou is famous for making oil paper umbrellas.The hand﹣made umbrellas here take more than 70 steps to make，including making bamboo ribs，pasting paper （糊纸） and painting pictures.It usually takes at least seven days to make an umbrella.
In 2015，Liu Weixue，left a well﹣paid job as a designer to learn the traditional art from his grandfather.After mastering the skills，he opened a shop of oil paper umbrellas.Now，he is a master of making oil paper umbrellas. "I want to bring the art to life." Liu said.To win the hearts of young people，Liu tried to make the umbrellas better.He started to use thicker paper because the traditional paper was easy to break.In a test，his umbrellas were opened and closed 1，000 times，but they didn't break.Also，he used lighter bamboo so that the umbrellas would weigh less.In 2017，Liu opened an online shop to sell umbrellas.It has more than 80，000 fans.
Liu hopes to pass on traditional art，so he often goes to local schools to teach students.Zhu Tingting took Liu's class last summer and made an umbrella in class successfully.She said，"Learning how to make oil paper umbrellas means a lot."
（1）The writer wrote Paragraph 2 to
A.tell us Yuhang is the homeland for oil paper umbrellas.
B.introduce how difficult it is to make oil paper umbrellas.
C.show his deep love for the oil paper umbrellas.
D.tell us what oil paper umbrellas look like.
（2）The following things make Liu's oil paper umbrellas popular EXCEPT .
A.thicker paper
B.lighter bamboo
C.traditional paper
D.his online shop
（3）What is the meaning of the underlined sentence in the last paragraph？
A.It's important for young people to pass on traditional art.
B.We can learn different traditional arts in Liu's class.
C.We should learn how to make oil paper umbrellas.
D.Learning traditional art is difficult but funny.
4．（8分）Some people believe that humans could live on the planet Mars by the year 2100.Our own planet，the Earth，is becoming more and more crowded and polluted because of the rapid increase in population.It is hoped that people could start all over again and build a better world on Mars.Here is what life could be like there.
At present，our spacecrafts are too slow to carry large numbers of passengers to Mars ﹣ it would take months.With the development of technology，by the year 2100，the journey might only take about 20 minutes in spacecrafts that travel at the speed of light!However，the spacecrafts would travel so fast that the journey to Mars might be quite uncomfortable.Many people would feel ill.
Humans cannot survive without water，oxygen or food.So far，nobody knows whether there would be enough water or oxygen on Mars for people there.Moreover，scientists are not sure whether plants could grow on Mars.Food would most probably be in the form of pills and would not be so tasty.
Gravity could be another problem.The gravity on Mars is only about three﹣eighths of that on the Earth.People would have to wear boots that are specially designed to prevent themselves from floating off into space.
Compared with life on the Earth，life on Mars would be better in some ways.People would have more space.They might live in houses with huge comfortable rooms.Also，robots would do most of their work so that they could have more time to relax.
There would probably be no schools on Mars.Every student would have a computer at home connected to an interplanetary network. They would study at online schools with "e﹣teachers".
Life on Mars would be interesting as well as challenging.
（1）What is the structure of the article ？
A.
B.
C.
D.

⑤Specially made clothes have to be worn while floating.
⑥Students might be able to have e﹣classes just at home.
A. ①②③
B. ②③⑥
C. ①④⑤
D.④⑤⑥
（3）What does the underlined word interplanetary network mean？
A.A network connects people from different cities.
B.A network connects people from different countries.
C.A network connects people all over the world.
D.A network connects people from different planets.
（4）What is the writer's opinion towards life on Mars？

World's oldest land animal
Jonathan，a turtle on the island of Saint Helena in the South Atlantic，turned 190 years old.This makes him the world's oldest living land animal.
In fact，Jonathan is probably older than 190.In 1882，Sir William Grey﹣Wilson，governor of the island，got him as a gift.At that time，Jonathan was already an adult.
Since it takes more than 50 years for a turtle to become an adult，animal experts say Jonathan must have been born before 1832.So his birthday was set on December 4th，1832.
In 1890，Sir Grey﹣Wilson became the governor of this island.He took Jonathan with him to live at the governor's home，called Plantation House.Since then，over 30 other governors have come and gone from Plantation House.But Jonathan has remained.And now he shares his home with three other turtles.
It is hard to understand how much the world has changed in the past 190 years.Jonathan was born before the Internet，computers，TVs，radios，telephones or light bulbs.He is older than the first picture.He was born before global warming began and before plastic was invented.
But Jonathan's interests do not change.He loves sleeping and eating.He likes to warm himself by sleeping in the sun.When the weather gets cold，he digs himself into grass to keep warm.
Though Jonathan is still very active，he does have some health problems.He is blind and cannot smell，so people need to feed him by hand.But he can hear well.And he eats a lot.He eats a lot of vegetables and fruits，including lettuce，cabbage and carrots，as well as apples and bananas.
Scientists have even studied Jonathan to get health benefits from his diet and cells.His cells do not mutate（ 突 变 ） the same way human cells do.Scientists also hope to find some secrets to fighting cancer in humans.
（1）Why did the writer list some inventions in Paragraph 5？
A .To show Jonathan's long life.
B.To tell the development of the society.
C.To express the concern of global warming.
D.To share Jonathan's interesting life.
（2）Which of the followings is NOT TRUE？
A.Jonathan has lived in Plantation House with over 30 other governors.
B.There are four turtles in Plantation House now.
C.Jonathan likes to sleep in the sun to keep warm.
D.Jonathan digs himself into grass to get cold.
（3）Why do people need to feed Jonathan by hand？
A.Because he is very active.
B.Because he is blind and can't smell.
C.Because he is a turtle of the governor.
D.Because he is too old to eat by himself.
（4）What's the correct order of the following events according to the passage？
①Jonathan lives together with three other turtles.
②Someone sent Jonathan to Grey﹣Wilson as a gift.
③Jonathan was born on an island in the South Atlantic.
④Jonathan moved to Plantation House with Grey﹣Wilson.
⑤More than 30 governors came and gone from Plantation House.
A. ②③④①⑤
B. ②③④⑤①
C. ③②④①⑤
D. ③②④⑤①
四.第二节 阅读填空（共 5 小题；每小题 1 分，满分 5 分）

Most animals communicate by smell.Dogs are famous for this.（1） Dogs have helped the police for a long time，too.They can find missing people by using their fantastic sense of smell.Mice have an excellent sense of smell，too.Scientists have even trained them to find landmines.Scientists have discovered that even ants use smell.（2）
Everyone has heard birds singing.Research has shown that many other animals use sound to communicate.（3） Usually the "gentlemen" make sounds to invite the "ladies".Whales and elephants also use sound to communicate.These sounds can travel very far through water or the ground.However，it is not possible for humans to hear some of the sounds.They are either too low or too high for us.
（4） When a cat puts its ears back，it is a bit mad.When it sits with its tail around itself，it is happy.（5） When it wags its tail and opens its mouth，it is happy.So I think my dog is happy right now.
A.Frogs and insects communicate with sounds.

4．（8分）Some people believe that humans could live on the planet Mars by the year 2100.Our own planet，the Earth，is becoming more and more crowded and polluted because of the rapid increase in population.It is hoped that people could start all over again and build a better world on Mars.Here is what life could be like there.
At present，our spacecrafts are too slow to carry large numbers of passengers to Mars ﹣ it would take months.With the development of technology，by the year 2100，the journey might only take about 20 minutes in spacecrafts that travel at the speed of light!However，the spacecrafts would travel so fast that the journey to Mars might be quite uncomfortable.Many people would feel ill.
Humans cannot survive without water，oxygen or food.So far，nobody knows whether there would be enough water or oxygen on Mars for people there.Moreover，scientists are not sure whether plants could grow on Mars.Food would most probably be in the form of pills and would not be so tasty.
Gravity could be another problem.The gravity on Mars is only about three﹣eighths of that on the Earth.People would have to wear boots that are specially designed to prevent themselves from floating off into space.
Compared with life on the Earth，life on Mars would be better in some ways.People would have more space.They might live in houses with huge comfortable rooms.Also，robots would do most of their work so that they could have more time to relax.
There would probably be no schools on Mars.Every student would have a computer at home connected to an interplanetary network. They would study at online schools with "e﹣teachers".
Life on Mars would be interesting as well as challenging.

6．（8分）
World's oldest land animal
Jonathan，a turtle on the island of Saint Helena in the South Atlantic，turned 190 years old.This makes him the world's oldest living land animal.
In fact，Jonathan is probably older than 190.In 1882，Sir William Grey﹣Wilson，governor of the island，got him as a gift.At that time，Jonathan was already an adult.
Since it takes more than 50 years for a turtle to become an adult，animal experts say Jonathan must have been born before 1832.So his birthday was set on December 4th，1832.
In 1890，Sir Grey﹣Wilson became the governor of this island.He took Jonathan with him to live at the governor's home，called Plantation House.Since then，over 30 other governors have come and gone from Plantation House.But Jonathan has remained.And now he shares his home with three other turtles.
It is hard to understand how much the world has changed in the past 190 years.Jonathan was born before the Internet，computers，TVs，radios，telephones or light bulbs.He is older than the first picture.He was born before global warming began and before plastic was invented.
But Jonathan's interests do not change.He loves sleeping and eating.He likes to warm himself by sleeping in the sun.When the weather gets cold，he digs himself into grass to keep warm.
Though Jonathan is still very active，he does have some health problems.He is blind and cannot smell，so people need to feed him by hand.But he can hear well.And he eats a lot.He eats a lot of vegetables and fruits，including lettuce，cabbage and carrots，as well as apples and bananas.
Scientists have even studied Jonathan to get health benefits from his diet and cells.His cells do not mutate（ 突 变 ） the same way human cells do.Scientists also hope to find some secrets to fighting cancer in humans.
（1）Why did the writer list some inventions in Paragraph 5？ A
A .To show Jonathan's long life.
B.To tell the development of the society.
C.To express the concern of global warming.
D.To share Jonathan's interesting life.
（2）Which of the followings is NOT TRUE？ A
A.Jonathan has lived in Plantation House with over 30 other governors.
B.There are four turtles in Plantation House now.
C.Jonathan likes to sleep in the sun to keep warm.
D.Jonathan digs himself into grass to get cold.
（3）Why do people need to feed Jonathan by hand？ B
A.Because he is very active.
B.Because he is blind and can't smell.
C.Because he is a turtle of the governor.
D.Because he is too old to eat by himself.
（4）What's the correct order of the following events according to the passage？ D
①Jonathan lives together with three other turtles.
②Someone sent Jonathan to Grey﹣Wilson as a gift.
③Jonathan was born on an island in the South Atlantic.
④Jonathan moved to Plantation House with Grey﹣Wilson.
⑤More than 30 governors came and gone from Plantation House.
A. ②③④①⑤
B. ②③④⑤①
C. ③②④①⑤
D. ③②④⑤①
【解答】（1）推理判断题。根据第五段Jonathan was born before the Internet，computers，TVs，radios，telephones or light bulbs.He is older than the first picture.He was born before global warming began and before plastic was invented.（乔纳森出生在互联网、电脑、电视、收音机、电话和灯泡出现之前。他比第一张照片老。他出生在全球变暖开始之前，塑料发明之前。）可推断出作者在第5段列出了一些发明，是为了展示乔纳森的长寿。故选A。
（2）推理判断题。根据第四段Since then，over 30 other governors have come and gone from Plantation House.But Jonathan has remained.（从那以后，又有30多位州长从种植园大厦卸任。但是乔纳森继续存在。）可推断出A选项"乔纳森和其他30多位州长一起住在种植园大厦。"表述错误。故选A。
（3）细节理解题。根据第七段He is blind and cannot smell，so people need to feed him by hand.（它是瞎的，也闻不到气味，所以人们需要用手喂他。）可知人们需要用手喂乔纳森，因为它是瞎的，也闻不到气味。故选B。
（4）细节理解题。根据第三段Since it takes more than 50 years for a turtle to become an adult，animal experts say Jonathan must have been born before 1832.So his birthday was set on December 4th，1832.（由于一只海龟需要50多年的时间才能长大，动物专家表示，乔纳森一定是在1832年之前出生的。所以他的生日定在1832年12月4日。）以及第二段In 1882，Sir William Grey﹣Wilson，governor of the island，got him as a gift.（1882年，该岛总督威廉•格雷•威尔逊爵士作为礼物得到了它。）以及第四段He took Jonathan with him to live at the governor's home，called Plantation House.Since then，over 30 other governors have come and gone from Plantation House.But Jonathan has remained.And now he shares his home with three other turtles.（他带着乔纳森一起住在总督的家里，叫做种植园大厦。从那以后，又有30多位州长从种植园大厦卸任。但是乔纳森继续存在。现在他和另外三只乌龟一起住在家里。）可知正确的顺序应为： ③②④⑤①。故选D。

【解答】细节推理题
（1）根据第二段Most animals communicate by smell.Dogs are famous for this.（大多数动物靠嗅觉交流。狗就是以这个出名的。）可推测，接下来作者要谈论跟狗嗅觉有关的信息。结合选项When a dog walk outside，it learns about other dogs by smelling things.（当狗在外面散步时，它通过气味来了解其他狗。）符合语境。故选D。
（2）根据第二段Scientists have discovered that even ants use smell.（科学家们发现甚至蚂蚁也利用嗅觉。）可推测，接下来作者要谈论与蚂蚁嗅觉相关的信息。结合选项They use smell to tell other ants where the food is.（它们用嗅觉告诉其他蚂蚁食物在哪里。）符合语境。故选C。

（4）根据最后一段When a cat puts its ears back，it is a bit mad.When it sits with its tail around itself，it is happy.（当猫把耳朵缩回来的时候，它就有点发疯。当它用尾巴绕着自己坐着的时候，它是快乐的。）可知，这是以猫为例，介绍动物也靠肢体语言交流。结合选项Animals have always used body language to communicate as well.（动物也一直使用肢体语言进行交流。）符合语境。故选E。
（5）根据最后一段When it wags its tail and opens its mouth，it is happy.（当它摇尾巴，张开嘴巴的时候，它是快乐的。）可知，这里是描述的是狗的肢体语言，所以空处应该也是与狗肢体语言有关的信息。结合选项When a dog puts its tail under its body，it is scared.（当狗把尾巴放在身体下面时，它是害怕的。）符合语境。故选B。
【点评】做题时结合原文和题目有针对性找出相关语句进行仔细分析，结合选项选出正确答案。推理判断也是要在抓住关键句子的基础上合理的分析才能得出正确的答案。
